Pitted surface causes and solutions

Pitted surface

This is a surface defect of the extruded product, which means that the surface of the product has a small rough and uneven continuous patchy sheet and point scratches, pitting and metal protrusion.

The main causes of pitted surface:

1. The mold hardness is not enough or the hardness is not uniform;

2. Extrusion temperature is too high;

3. The extrusion speed is too fast;

4 The mold bearing is too long, rough or sticky metal;

5. Extruded mill finish profile is too long.

Solutions for pitted surfaces:

1. Improve the hardness and hardness uniformity of the mold bearing;

2. Heat the extrusion container and billets in accordance with the regulations, and use an appropriate extrusion speed;

3. Reasonably design the mold, reduce the surface roughness of the mold bearing, and strengthen the surface inspection, repair and polishing for bearing of mold;

4. Use reasonable aluminum billets length.
